Miscellany

Miscellany

• Can we make CluB a joint project?
• Can we get professional help with
• code sanitation
• speed
• unnecessary package dependencies
• tracked vs. un-tracked rcp parameters
• documentation (e.g., webmaster?)
• or can we get physicists to do such jobs as a
  central service for a finite time?
• Forum to improve communication between
  computing and physics communities in D??

2
Miscellany

• TMB as output format for next few months?
• Code verification projects ? systematic SAM/farm
  monitoring
• SAM on clued0
• Lifecycle management for files and SAM datasets
• D? webpage summarising Monte Carlo datasets
• several physics groups maintain partial lists
• Monte Carlo tune to data e.g., smt dead ladders

3
Action Items

• Now
• p12 development is finished
• exceptions must be specifically approved by Harry
  Melanson
• End July
• p12 ? L3 and reco farms (no excuses!)
• p12 ? MC farms subject to possible delay of one
  month, because one person goes on holiday!
• should include trigsim with generic trigger list

4
Action Items (continued)

• Two weeks time
• d0tools utility to run new example framework
  analysis package on TMB, DST
• first version of D? analysis computing primer
• documentation of access methods for reco physics
  objects
• web-page with current best MC datasets
• Beginning Oct
• detailed documentation of reco physics object
  contents
• documentation and example analysis package for
  L1/L2/L3 trigger physics objects
• p13 build starts
• collaboration week day of tutorials on framework
  and TMBTree analysis, SAM, etc?

5
Action Items (continued)

• End Oct
• p13 ? L3, reco and MC farms
• if shut down delayed we might be able to get
  significant re-processing done
• reco farm upgrade up and running
• But lets not kid ourselves we need the
  capability to do significant amounts of
  re-processing for at least the next six months!
